Léon Gaucherel Art

French, 1816-1886

Léon Gaucherel was one of the pupils of Eugène Viollet-le-Duc whom he accompanied to Sicily in the 1830s. He illustrated a Projet de Restauration de Notre-Dame proposed by Viollet-le-Duc and Jean-Baptiste-Antoine Lassus in 1843. In 1844, he realized several artworks with the etching technique; people called him "the father of the Etchings." Gaucherel realized several impressions for the Gazette des beaux-arts representing landscapes and architecture decorative motives. In 1845, he became the director of the illustrated magazine L'Art, founded by Eugène Véron. Gaucherel passed away in Paris, France, at the age of 69 in 1886.

In 1866, the seventeen-year-old son of artist parents began his studies at the École des Beaux-Arts Paris. In 1874, Besnard won the important Prix de Rome, with which the academy distinguished young talent. A portion of the scholarship is a stay of several years in Rome. Besnard married Charlotte Dubray, a sculptress, during this time in Rome. The couple lived in England, where Besnard exhibited at the Royal Academy London, between 1881 and 1884. He became involved with English portrait painting during this period, which had a lasting influence on his work. In the years that followed, Besnard broke with the academic tradition.
